In My Mailbox (51)
In My Mailbox is something was
that started over at The
Story Siren and I think it’s
pretty awesome. It’s a way to showcase the books that you gotten through
different places. Books you gotten in the mail, brought from a store, borrowed
from the library, received to write a review, or they can be
in eBook form. Here's a link to see how it all started.

Bear Meets Girl (Pride #7) by Shelly Laurenston
He's big, burly, and way
smarter than your average shapeshifting bear. He's also about to get trapped by
own his game. . .
Lou Crushek is
a reasonable, mellow, easygoing kind of guy. But once someone starts killing
the scumbags he works so hard to bust, that really gets under his fur.
Especially when that someone is a curvy she-tiger with a skill set that's
turning Crush's lone-bear world upside down--and bringing his passion out of
hibernation. . .
As a member of
an elite feline protection unit, Marcella Malone has no problem body-dropping
anyone who hunts her kind. But Crush is proving one major pain in her gorgeous
tail. The only reason she's joined forces with him is to track down the wealthy
human who's got her entire species in his ruthless sights. It sure isn't
because Crush's stubborn and contrary attitude is rubbing Cella in all the
right ways. . .
Spell Bound (Hex Hall #3) by Rachel Hawkins
Hailed as “impossible to put down,” the Hex Hall series has both critics
and teens cheering. With a winning combination of romance, action, magic and
humor, this third volume will leave readers enchanted.
Just as Sophie Mercer has come to accept her extraordinary magical powers as a demon, the Prodigium Council strips them away. Now Sophie is defenseless, alone, and at the mercy of her sworn enemies—the Brannicks, a family of warrior women who hunt down the Prodigium. Or at least that’s what Sophie thinks, until she makes a surprising discovery. The Brannicks know an epic war is coming, and they believe Sophie is the only one powerful enough to stop the world from ending. But without her magic, Sophie isn’t as confident.
Sophie’s bound for one hell of a ride—can she get her powers back before it’s too late?

Katie
and Rhyn are in a race against time to free Katie from the underworld, before

Breakaway (New York Blades #11) by Deirdre Martin {Kindle}
They had it all planned out: college, marriage, happily ever after.
But it didn't quite work out that way...
Erin O'Brien was everyone's favorite in Ballycraig, while Rory Brady was the town's golden boy: the local lad who moved to America and became a professional hockey player. Rory promised to return to sweep Erin away to the life of her dreams in New York. But the bright lights and late nights turned his head and he never came back.
Two years later, Rory realizes he's made the worst mistake of his life. Heading back to Ballycraig, he's confident that all he needs to do is flash his winning smile and Erin will fall back into his arms. But Erin's moved on.
Racing the clock, Rory needs to prove to her that the man she fell in love with is still there. But can happy-go-lucky Erin risk it all and give another chance to the man who broke her heart?

A Season of Eden by Jennifer Laurens
He’s my teacher. I shouldn’t be alone with him.
But I can’t help that he’s irresistible.
I let the door silently close at my back. He stared at me, and a taut quiet stretched between us.
“I like hearing you play,” I said, moving toward him.
He turned, in sync with my slow approach. He looked up at me but didn’t say anything. I rested my clammy hand on the cold, slick body of the baby grand. “May I?”

The
muscles in his throat shifted, then he swallowed. “Eden.”
My knees weakened, like a soft tickling kiss had just been blown against the backs of them. “Is it okay?” I asked.
His
gaze held mine like two hands joined. He understood what I was really asking. My knees weakened, like a soft tickling kiss had just been blown against the backs of them. “Is it okay?” I asked.
